Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Primary Objective:

To compare patient-led titration (intervention group) versus physician-led titration (usual standard of care) in optimizing the clinical use of insulin glargine in an Asian population of patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) uncontrolled on oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs).

Secondary Objectives:

To determine the difference in glycemic control, safety, quality of life and treatment satisfaction between patient-led titration and usual care.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Intervention group

Initiation on a fixed dose of insulin glargine, then subjects will self-adjusted their basal insulin dose every 3 days

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Insulin Glargine

Intervention Type DRUG

Pharmaceutical form: solution for injection

Route of administration: subcutaneous

Dose regimen: initial: once a day in the evening at bedtime. Titration will occur each time the middle FPG (Fasting Plasma Glucose) value is above target

Usual standard of care group

Initiation on a fixed dose of insulin glargine, then basal insulin dose is adjusted at each visit by a physician

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Insulin Glargine

Intervention Type DRUG

Pharmaceutical form: solution for injection

Route of administration: subcutaneous

Dose regimen: initial: once a day in the evening at bedtime. Titration will occur each time the middle FPG (Fasting Plasma Glucose) value is above target
